Highlights from the MUN Conference!

I am so proud of myself: I finally got around to making this post! I've just been so busy lately...hope you enjoy it!
As most of you know, I recently went to KL for and MUN conference. I'll just briefly touch upon some of the high points.

The boys having to wear business clothes
Posing for pics (hehe kidding I hate posing!)

Writing resos and meeting new people
Above is Egg (delegate of Belgium)
and below is Ben (delegate of Peru)

Egg strangely insisted on wearing his aviators throughout the conference
And Ben gained the nickname of "Boss" as he seemed to think he was somehow incharge of the group...

Of course, one of the best things was the debate itself! Getting to argue with people, pass notes, ask questions to make people look silly, pass resolutions...
And getting to say OBJECTION!

Jack's crazy emo outfits

Ted's awsome ties

Karoke!
Above is Alysa dancing to the music (clearly)
And below are the admin staff who decided to join in ;-P
I got a video of everyone dancing to the YMCA but decided not to post it =D

"It's fun to stay at the YMCA!"

Singing "Happy Birthday" to Namruta in front of the whole conference

The boys and their...erm...water bottle wars?
Evidence of child abuse!
And then they HAD to tell everyone which school we were from....
Oh well haha

Then back at the hotel waiting for Namruta's birthday cake...
We ordered it that morning and asked it to be in the room BEFORE we got there, but they forgot...

The cake finally arriving ...
And then eating the cake!


Now, you'll all agree that one of the best parts of trips is taking candids, right?

"It's modern art!"
"E=mc2"
"I'll just pretend to be listening and hope nobody notices the zit on my nose...ooo and can I have some, Julian?"

"Don't fall down...don't fall down..."

Now, this isn't really a highlight, as nobody wanted to go to this cave but I might as well put it in....we climbed up all 300 of these stairs. It wasn't very interesting...

...except of course for the occasional rain dancing moron!

This is Jane, desperately trying to get back into our room after a tiring 3 hours of shopping...

...which included getting false tatoos ;-P

Fiddeling around with the safe and taking other random pics in the room (which I chose not to include)



Next day we went on a tour of KL, which included a stop at a chocolate factory! With free samples! Silly of me, I forgot to take pictures! The chocolates were soooo good.....as some of you had the fortune of being allowed to have from my bag of almonds covered in dark chocolate =D

Jack's super-awsome bag

And the view from the airplane. We were flying almost exactly due east! It was so cool...the map showed the route to be a straight line, and you can see the sun right behind us!


Really, the whole conference was really a great experience. I highly recommend it!

Note From the Blogger

The blogger would like to inform readers that there will be no further posts until (most likely) Friday, April 18, 2008. This is due to the fact that she will be away at an MUN (Model United Nations) conference in KL and then performing in a play (The Midwich Cukoos). However, there are many other wonderful blogs you can view to entertain yourself in the time space (see the link list)
Thank you for your patience.

E-mail Courtesy and Safety

Ok, I am getting SICK and TIRED of recieving forwarded letters where you need to scroll through 52billion pages just to get to the letter part! It's time people learned some email courtesy:
  1. When sending warnings about emails containing viruses going around, make sure your facts are correct first! To check if a virus warning is true, a good site to use is http://www.snopes.com
  2. Always always ALWAYS copy and paste emails so you don't have to open 52billion attachments to get the message!
  3. Erase email addresses of previous senders or you might end up getting emails from people you don't know! Most of you don't really care about this part, what with Myspace and stuff these days, but it is seriously important! You don't realise how many hackers and stalkers there are out there.....outside of Brunei, that is.
  4. Check with anti-virus software before opening emails.

    Thank you for listening, and hopefully you will actually use these tips before you send someone another email....
